Peter, both CENELEC and IEC are developing pacemaker EMC standards. The only
published document is EN 50061/A1 which has not been published in the OJ.
That standard will be replaced by EN45502-X. EN45502-1 is published but does
not contain limits.

Subject: Standard for EM Immunity for cardiac pacemakers?
Can anyone point me in the direction of any standards that would
cover the
electromagnetic immunity requirements for cardiac pacemakers?
The focus of my interest is for pacemakers that are likely to be
found in
Hong Kong or southern China.
The closest I've found with my own hunting so far is "IEC 60601-1-2
Medical
electrical equipment - Part 1-2: General requirements for safety -
Collateral standard: Electromagnetic compatibility - Requirements
and
tests" but suspect there would be some more specific requirements
for
something so likely to cause a safety risk if it malfunctions.
Thanks.
